Teachers are a child’s guiding path. They
teach them the basic skills required in life and try to set a good example.
These are the basic requirements. But to be a good teacher, you have to excite the
students and make them hungry to learn. If you stir a child’s interest they
will learn better. There are many traits of a good teacher.
A teacher must be authoritative, fun,
focused and enthusiastic. This is because you need to control your classroom in
order for your students to even be interested in the lesson. Second of all, if
your lesson is fun then you fully capture a child’s interest. By being focused,
your students will follow suit. Some students don’t have interest in certain
things but if you show passion and enthusiasm, they can learn to enjoy
learning.
As a teacher, you should not just aim to
teach a student in class time. Build a friendship and spend extra time
answering their questions. Get to know the child better. Show an interest. If you
guide them well they will be grateful later on. Also, by having a good
relationship, their overall attitude will improve in class.
In general, being a good teacher isn’t just
being knowledgeable. It’s also about being fun, enthusiastic and understanding.
